Good thing it wasn't raining....

On Friday I bought this great umbrella that attaches to a beach chair. Madison used it at the beach but when she got up from the chair to go into the water a big gust of wind blew the umbrella inside out, breaking one of the prongs inside.

Saturday Madison needed shading from the sun at Darcy's soccer game. She found the umbrella still in the car and insisted it was what she needed despite the broken prong.

     













She opened the umbrella and put it over her head. It was a tad lopsided from the broken prong. She said it would do.

Then a gust of wind blew across the soccer field and forced the umbrella inside out.....again! Madison flipped it back and said all was well.

















Unfortunately, the wind gusts continued one right after the other. The umbrella would turn out. Madison would reverse it. The umbrella would turn out. Prongs continued to pop off the umbrella.

















It was more entertaining than the soccer game. Eventually, all of the prongs broke and that was the end of the umbrella. It shaded no one.
